How we’re making Webflow Hosting even more reliable

In response to a significant outage that impacted major websites including those hosted by Webflow, the company has announced efforts to enhance the reliability of its hosting services. Historically, Webflow Hosting boasted over 99.99% uptime until the outage, which was caused by a dependency on Amazon's S3 service. This incident highlighted the vulnerability of Webflow's infrastructure, leading to business disruptions and lost productivity. Webflow initially chose S3 for its speed, reliability, and scalability, using it as a backend file system to store and quickly retrieve site assets distributed through a content delivery network. Recognizing the need for improvement, Webflow is now implementing measures to prevent future disruptions, ensuring that its hosting platform remains robust and capable of scaling alongside its growth.
